Hank and I are mildly addicted to television. We both work in busy offices and have to operate in a "political frame" (read "Organizational Behaviors" by Bolman and Deal) the majority of the time. It's tiring and we like to come home, take care of daily odds and ends, eat some supper and go on little mental vacations in front of the television.
I don't know why we like what we like, but we're generally compatible TV watchers. We mourned the end of West Wing and The Sopranos...neither of us gets Survivor or most of the other reality shows with the exception of American Idol, and my dirty little secret, Celebrity Apprentice. We laugh our heads off at Big Bang Theory...and then there's LOST!!
Incidentally...we're watching American Idol now and tonight's twelve are VERY disappointing thus far. Some of the girls are over-performing to the point of looking "affected" somehow.
This kid, Kai, is pretty cute though...He loves his mother very much! He also reminds me of Sayid from LOST so that definitely gives him an edge in my book.
Guess what I'm doing on Saturday morning...Hot Rocks Massage. Hank gave me a gift certificate in my Christmas stocking. Ninety minutes of BLISS...I could use some bliss. How about you?
Tell us...what brings you bliss??
Oh wait...the last kid, Adam. He's quite the talent...WOW. Randy compared him to Edward Cullen...oh my goodness! Hank has no idea who Edward Cullen is...that's another of my dirty little secrets...I might be in love with a vampire.
I rambled through this one pretty well, didn't I?
Told ya! You didn't doubt me, did you?

I liked him also!
ReplyDeleteI have a ques. Was the Tori Spelling book any good?
ReplyDeleteMy wife would while heartedly agree with you on every point here!
ReplyDeleteYou and your husband sound just like us. Right down to the same shows. The Sopranos....I'm still mourning it.
ReplyDeleteWe have tonight's AI recorded and will watch it later after the kids are in bed. Is it just more, or does this season seem...BLAHHHH. Hoping when they get down the final 12, things will pick up.
What brings me bliss?
Seeing my children asleep in their bed...hehe. Aside from the peace and quiet that bed time brings, I do get warm fuzzy feelings when I go in to check on them one last time. I'm reminded of their innocence and how blessed I am to be their mom.
Ohhh and chocolate. hehe
lol..I like my romance books..lol..I actually gave my mom 10 dollars today and she picked me up 20 books from the college where she works because they were having a book sale and she had first pick. I was a happy cmaper when she brought me home two bags of books and she didnt get any I have read before and that was a shocker..lol
ReplyDeleteI love it when you ramble lol! The Big Bang Theory is one of our favorite shows, it's one of the few things that we ALWAYS watch - rock, paper, scissors, lizard, spock - that just cracks me up. And the episode when Sheldon's mother showed up - classic! I watch American Idol, I didn't get to see much of it tonight, how did my little music teacher who lost his wife do? Now I'm rambling! Have fun at your rock massage, sounds wonderful. Kathy
ReplyDeleteI am also in love with Edward Cullen.
ReplyDeleteI have no shame.
I told Clay that he better be glad I didn't read Twilight before I met him, otherwise I would have had MUCH higher expectations of my future husband.
He just laughed at me.
Probably because he didn't think I was serious.

he didnt get great reviews tonight but I didnt agree with the judges..I think and hope he gets another chance. I actually love that song.
ReplyDeleteWe also like Big Bang Theory and How I Met Your Mother also.We loved the Sopranos. I never had a hot rocks massage, it sounds like heaven!
ReplyDeleteIf you have been to my blog, you will notice that I too, am in love with Edward. Rob is cute- as Edward. Not a fan of the short hair and facial hair but in the movie he was so hot I hyperventilated. It was also the way he looked at Bella. Whew!!
I have never watched lost or AI. I am the only one, I'll bet.
Enjoy your massage and tell me all about it, I need one!
Hot rock massage is my fave by far!
ReplyDeleteCrafts are my bliss. I am so jealous of the massage though! I thought the Adam guy did great! I was pretty much disappointed in the rest. Oh no I did think the red haired girl did ok. And...Edward Cullen is my little secret too! Shhh!
ReplyDeleteOhhh I think Adam might be the one to win it all!! he was great tonight!!
ReplyDeleteHe does look like Sayid. Maybe I will start watching American Idol again.
ReplyDeleteI love love love Survivor. Just had to say it.

So...I LOVE the Sopranos...was heartbroken when it ended. I made my husband get HBO when we moved in together just for the final season :)
ReplyDeleteAlso...I have a serious crush on Mr. Cullen as well!
Have a ton of fun with your massage. It sounds heavenly!
I agree a lot of the performers last night were just not good! Kai had a great voice, I guess the song he chose just wasn't right though. Adam to me looks like a long-lost member of the Jonas Brothers!
ReplyDeleteIt was a bit of a disappointing night on American Idol. Adam was really good...but the rest of them were less than stellar. It will be interesting to see who America puts through. I hate to admit it...but I LOVE that show. It's a must see for me....poor hubby went downstairs and watched the Jazz game. I am a diehard Utah Jazz fan...but it is trumped by American Idol lol
ReplyDeleteHavent even got into AI this year... heard it is disappointing from a few people...
ReplyDeleteAnd dont feel too - I'm in love with a vampire AND a werewolf! :-)
I liked Adam...and also that 16 year old girl with the red hair...she really rocked it!
ReplyDeleteBlisss....I love massages...oooo, I could use one right now!
Hugz,
Michele
I love the Big Bang Theory...and LOST...I don't know when I am
ReplyDeleteHave a good day!
I was pretty much bored with last night's AI too. (Yes, I must admit...I am a TV junkie. I can't help it. I just love my shows & my DVR.)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your hot rocks massage! You deserve some relaxation.
man, LOST blew my mind last night. i didn't get to see idol this week! i will be watching next week though...
ReplyDeletenothing wrong with tv! OR bliss! yes, bliss is good.
About your Mother and Ned, it'snever easy. Period. No matter what you do, there will always be "If I had done it differently..." If your Mother were 40 and you had been able to sit down with her and really talk about this time in her future, what would she have said? "Do your best for us and don't let us make you miserable!" I've already had 'the talk' with my daughters and offered to write it down for them,alas, they forget when the time comes.
ReplyDeleteJo
Sayid...yum.
ReplyDeleteHot rocks massage? Perfecto! Enjoy!
I had a hot rocks massage once... lovely. Pure heaven.
ReplyDeleteI love Celebrity Apprentice - my dirty little secret also. I guess all Southern Belle's have them. I know I do. :)
ReplyDeleteYou are right: Kai DOES look like Sayid! And also a guy I went to high school with that I had a big-time crush on. ;)
ReplyDeleteMiss Janice loves American Idol. Loves it!
